Episode description

Join Ed Farmer, VA disability appeals attorney and combat veteran, as he dives into eight conditions the VA does not consider for service connection, providing invaluable insight for veterans navigating their disability claims.

Today's episode covers why high cholesterol, obesity, congenital defects, refractive errors, personality disorders, willful misconduct-related disabilities, substance abuse, and tobacco-related issues don't qualify as service-connected disabilities. He goes beyond the basics, explaining how certain conditions might still be indirectly connected. With detailed examples, veterans can better understand their options within the VA system.
